There are many you tube videos on it. My husband and I experimented with it but I was fearful to show it to my kiddos because I could not get it to work with numbers that included a zero. I haven&#39;t tried your way with the colors though, that might help. Could you get it to work with zeros? Any advice to squish my fears of teaching the kiddos a more paper/time consuming way of multiplication?

You might be interested in a FREE site called Xtra Math that I&#39;ve been using with my class all year... it is a quick daily drill of basic facts ( + - x and /) that you can program, and it tracks everything for you! My kids love it, and I&#39;ve really seen progress!!<br /><br />Erin :)Erin Bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12953921721733529970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202102119215739734.post-6519615439290824162013-01-17T16:35:37.041-05:002013-01-17T16:35:37.041-05:00How cool!

Instead of saying 6 in the hundreds for example..write 600. 19 tens would be plus 190 and then the 10 ones would actually be plus 10 to get your 800 in the first problem. It&#39;s like reinforcing the idea of the actual place value when you multiply the 2x3..(20x30) instead of just the h column with the 6.<br />Thank you for sharing!!! <br />Michele<br />Michelehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04674675143629781926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202102119215739734.post-30030285617697617362013-01-16T21:08:29.711-05:002013-01-16T21:08:29.711-05:00my guys are also seriously struggling with their f...my guys are also seriously struggling with their facts. it&#39;s so frustrating because it is so instrumental to every other concept (ie, the equivalent fractions we are working on right now!), but I can&#39;t spend days on end teaching facts. I understand the push towards a conceptual understanding of multiplication and division, but sometimes I wish we were still in age of drilling kids on their facts until they know them. :/Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07074397899413441071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202102119215739734.post-10358355009388812752013-01-16T19:43:34.642-05:002013-01-16T19:43:34.642-05:00aaaahhhh, I get it!
